Oh my...

Did I unintentionally become the center of attention for everyone? The pressure is intense.

So, Ryuto calmly spoke as he stared at Yamada's pressure.

"Four billion."

As soon as the words fell,

"Oh—"

an exclamation immediately followed.

"This young man directly bid four billion. This move is really ruthless, strong and straightforward, without any hesitation. At a critical moment, the enemy's vital point is targeted. So, how will our old gentleman counter this move."

Hey, hey, why does the theme seem to have changed? Isn't that the commentator's script for a martial arts performance?

Director! Did you write the lines incorrectly?

"...Since that's the case, I'll go with it, I bid five billion."

After a slight hesitation, our wealthy old man decided to follow suit.

It seems like something strange has crept in?

"Six billion."

In response, Ryuto calmly spoke again.

"Tsk..."

Our wealthy boss gritted his teeth, although it seemed like he was wearing dentures...

"Then I'll go all in."

Saying that, our wealthy old man also imitated the two people from before by taking off his reading glasses.

"I bid five billion and add this item worth three billion."

"Oh... This old gentleman actually bid eight billion."

The whole venue immediately erupted.

Hey, hey, old man, it's just bidding on an item, no need to be so frantic, are you going to start offering installment payments next?

Since the other side has gone all out, it wouldn't be fair for us to hold back.

So, Ryuto.

"Ten billion."

He made another calm bid.

"Wow—"

The gasps from the crowd changed.

"This young man actually bid ten billion, it's truly surprising. Who on earth is this young man, his money seems like an endless pit, unfathomable."

"Damn it..."

At this critical moment, our wealthy old man couldn't stay calm anymore.

"Ten billion for the first time, ten billion for the second time, ten billion for the third time..."

"Hold on."

Our wealthy old man still hadn't given up.

"What's wrong? Does this old gentleman have an even higher bid?"

"Yes, as far as I know, other things can be used as capital here."

"Yes, just as the old gentleman said, anything valuable can be used as capital."

After confirming, our wealthy old man said.

"Well, in that case, I'll mortgage my house worth ten billion, plus the previous eight billion."

"What? This old man actually bid eighteen billion, totally surprising!"

Our host was too good at math, calculating it in an instant.

"Wow—"

The whole venue erupted again.

Oh my...

Old man, you're really going all out, it's okay to mortgage what you have with you, but now even mortgaging your property papers... Please consume sensibly, never act on impulse, impulsive decisions ruin lives.

"Twenty billion."

Ryuto calmly made another bid.

"Oh—"

Now, every time a bid is made, the entire venue erupts in astonishment.

"This young man bid twenty billion, old gentleman, do you still plan to follow?"

Hey, hey, this doesn't seem like a card game.

"Of course it is. Since the opponent is unpredictable, we can only go all in."

The old man rolled up his sleeves and took on a fighting stance.

Hey, hey, sir, it seems like you're not actually fighting, and...

To go all in like that, isn't it a bit extreme? Even when shopping, there's no need to bet everything you have. Well, although cremation is popular these days, all you need is an urn. But an urn also costs money, right? If you bet all your money, aren't you afraid you won't have enough to buy an urn when the time comes?
